Book States of Inquiry

  • Author : Oz Frankel
  • Publisher : JHU Press
  • Release : 2006-07-21
  • ISBN : 0801888778
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book States of Inquiry written by Oz Frankel and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2006-07-21 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-nineteenth century, American and British governments marched with great fanfare into the marketplace of knowledge and publishing. British royal commissions of inquiry, inspectorates, and parliamentary committees conducted famous social inquiries into child labor, poverty, housing, and factories. The American federal government studied Indian tribes, explored the West, and investigated the condition of the South during and after the Civil War. Performing, printing, and then circulating these studies, government established an economy of exchange with its diverse constituencies. In this medium, which Frankel terms "print statism," not only tangible objects such as reports and books but knowledge itself changed hands. As participants, citizens assumed the standing of informants and readers. Even as policy investigations and official reportage became a distinctive feature of the modern governing process, buttressing the claim of the state to represent its populace, government discovered an unintended consequence: it could exercise only limited control over the process of inquiry, the behavior of its emissaries as investigators or authors, and the fate of official reports once issued and widely circulated. This study contributes to current debates over knowledge, print culture, and the growth of the state as well as the nature and history of the "public sphere." It interweaves innovative, theoretical discussions into meticulous, historical analysis.

Book West Indian Slavery and British Abolition  1783 1807

Download or read book West Indian Slavery and British Abolition 1783 1807 written by David Ryden and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ryden challenges conventional wisdom regarding the political and economic motivations behind the final decision to abolish the British slave trade in 1807. His research illustrates that a faltering sugar economy after 1799 tipped the scales in favour of the abolitionist argument and helped secure the passage of abolition.

Book Empire of Neglect

    Book Details:
  • Author : Christopher Taylor
  • Publisher : Duke University Press Books
  • Release : 2018-05-18
  • ISBN : 9780822371151
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Empire of Neglect written by Christopher Taylor and published by Duke University Press Books. This book was released on 2018-05-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the publication of Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations, nineteenth-century liberal economic thinkers insisted that a globally hegemonic Britain would profit only by abandoning the formal empire. British West Indians across the divides of race and class understood that, far from signaling an invitation to nationalist independence, this liberal economic discourse inaugurated a policy of imperial “neglect”—a way of ignoring the ties that obligated Britain to sustain the worlds of the empire’s distant fellow subjects. In Empire of Neglect Christopher Taylor examines this neglect’s cultural and literary ramifications, tracing how nineteenth-century British West Indians reoriented their affective, cultural, and political worlds toward the Americas as a response to the liberalization of the British Empire. Analyzing a wide array of sources, from plantation correspondence, political economy treatises, and novels to newspapers, socialist programs, and memoirs, Taylor shows how the Americas came to serve as a real and figurative site at which abandoned West Indians sought to imagine and invent postliberal forms of political subjecthood.
